Family, history, and culture play an important role in family traditions, religious practices, dietary considerations, language expression, and social norms. For this assignment, you will research a culture different from your own and create a wiki highlighting things that make that culture unique.
Your wiki must include a minimum of the following things for this assignment (Please also see a detailed description of wiki elements within the rubric):
Choose a culture different from your own
A home page or "pretty face" for your wiki (using good instructional design and that makes the purpose of your wiki evident)--You must use the home page created by Wikispaces. Please don't rename it.
At least three pages linked from the navigation menu (this can include your "Home" page)
*One interactive activity that students would use
(it would require them to edit the wiki--the activity cannot be a discussion board posting)
At least one relevant image
*One other embedded HTML object. See Wikispaces Help for more information.
Review your wiki and make sure it meets the above criteria and your spelling & grammar are correct.
*If you need help with any of the starred skills above, please see the "Skills Focus" pages within this module.
To submit your wiki, you will post the URL to Canvas (make sure the privacy settings on your wiki are not set so that users have to be members of your wiki to view it.) Once you post your wiki page, you should also critically review the other members of your class (you will be assigned peer reviews after the due date). Please note that the comments are due 48 hours after the wiki addresses are posted. You will evaluate your group members through Canvas based on the rubric provided. To receive credit, you must include at least two comments about one thing you liked and one think that could be improved. After you have read your group members' comments, you will make changes to your wiki and post your finalized wiki to your blog. You should utilize the suggestions your classmates give you to make changes to your wiki before posting it. You will reflect about these suggestions and the changes you made in your blog post.
